Chapter three hundred and ninety seventh was cheated again
In the second month of February, the emperor personally plows the fields. This is a rule that has been passed down since ancient times and is also an important event for the country.
The emperor personally plowed the land and focused on mulberry farming, which was a system of the Han Dynasty second only to sacrifices, and even more important than the general four-season sacrifices.
The emperor led his courtiers to plow the fields, and the queen led her concubines to raise silkworms. This was a traditional habit of the Han Dynasty, and it was also a manifestation of the emperor's encouragement to farmers.
Although commerce was developed in the Song Dynasty, farming was never slack. Not to mention Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng alone, his mulberry farming technology was comparable to that of the officials in Sinong Temple. Even the small fragrant rice and Champa rice introduced at that time were
He personally planted and observed the rice in the Imperial Garden, and he also said: "Grow rice in the Forbidden City, watch the harvest in your spare time, and see the hard work, the more you realize that farming is worth it!"
Who said that most feudal emperors were greedy for pleasure? Even the rulers of the Shou Cheng Dynasty must have strong abilities, otherwise they would not be able to do even the most basic national affairs such as farming and mulching.
Emperor Zhenzong's every move left a deep impression on Liu E, otherwise he would not have planted the potatoes and sweet potatoes paid tribute by Ye An in the backyard. Although Zhao Heng did many wrong things in his later years, it has to be said that he did
His good deeds were also inherited and even influenced several generations of officials in the Song Dynasty.
This can be seen from Emperor Zhenzong's emphasis on farming and mulberry farming, which can be seen in the holy poems to encourage farming.
Probably because Zhao Zhen was young and rarely went out of the city, today he was more excited than usual. Looking at the letters presented by the courtiers, he was no longer disgusted by the many praises in them.
The most important thing about the important ceremony of the emperor personally cultivating the country is to propagate and educate the people, so the standards and etiquette are extremely high. The guards and imperial guards in Xuandemen have been prepared, and they are all the "elites" of the four armies. These elites are often
A tall man, a mighty man, and an extraordinary heroic being are also the hallmarks of the Great Song Dynasty.
Ye An stood in the square in front of the Daqing Palace with the courtiers. Because they followed the etiquette system, the status among officials was completely arranged according to their title and rank, so Ye An stood in the procession of nobles.
There are almost all big bosses in this team. Whether it is Wang Zeng or Lu Yijian, they both have extremely high titles.
Among them, you can even see Feng Zheng, the Duke of Wei who resigned several times. Yes, almost all the senior civil servants of the Song Dynasty were nobles, which shows the preferential treatment given by the Zhao and Song Dynasty to civil servants.
When it comes to Ye An, the nobles around him are all real "nobles", either because of their inherited titles or because of their father's favor, so they are said to be real dandy children, yameni.
Fortunately, the person standing behind Ye An was Li Duanyi. It was probably because it was the first time for Ye An to participate in this kind of imperial ceremony, so Liu E specially treated him favorably and asked Li Duanyi, a familiar figure, to stand behind him to help him with guidance.
two.
Otherwise, how could a relative of his stand behind Ye An, the founding lord of the country? In front of Ye An was an elderly civil servant with a white jade pendant hanging around his waist. From time to time, he turned his head and looked at Ye An curiously, but
I hesitated to speak several times.
Ye An naturally didn't take it seriously. Most of the civil servants looked at him with a bit of curiosity. The act of stopping the negotiation with the Liao envoy in the Daqing Palace that day made many civil servants have a change in their sense of him.
Almost all the details of the subsequent negotiations reached the ears of the civil servants. From the initial dissatisfaction and anger to the later emotion and admiration, the civil servants at least affirmed Ye An in terms of his abilities.
Because he was directly assigned to his position by the royal censor when he arrived at the palace, Ye An did not have much interaction with the nobles before and after him.
Fortunately, because there were so many people and it was so cold in spring, no one paid attention to the courtiers standing there with their Tang Pozi in their arms talking.
When she went out early in the morning, Mumu prepared a full set of equipment for Ye An, from ear muffs to neck scarves to hand warmers, almost "arming" him from head to toe.
In comparison, Li Duanyi behind him is like a "stepmother". Apart from a hand warmer and a cloak, he has almost nothing, not to mention that he is actually wearing thin-soled fast boots and is "dancing"
Woolen cloth!
"These soldiers of the Fourth Army are just dragging their feet. As guards, the number of casualties is already certain in their hearts. Why do they still need to prepare for so long?"
The gentleman next to him glanced at the calm Ye An, then crossed his hands and saluted Li Duanyi and said, "Deputy Envoy Li said this a little too early. He hasn't even brought the leader Yi Xiang over yet. I don't know when.
Only then can we get out of Xuandemen!"
Li Duanyi was immediately surprised and said: "The saint uses Dajia Lubo?"
"Isn't that right? This time it's a big deal. The saint has summoned the great master to come out, which shows that he is protecting the officials!"
Ye An was equally surprised when he heard this. Good guy, he actually saw the legendary Dajia Lubo. This thing was almost developed to its extreme in the Song Dynasty.
Who doesn't know that the emperors of the Song Dynasty were famous for their good looks, and this guard ceremony was also taken to the extreme.
"The emperor's order of driving is called Lu, and the soldiers and guards lead with armor and shields on the outside. They are both called Bu, so it is called Lu Bu."
The slightly older civil servant in front turned around and slowly explained to Ye An. Ye An quickly crossed his hands and saluted: "Don't you know the seniority?"
The older civil servant smiled and said: "I am a member of the Criminal Department, Du Yan."
"It turned out that I was admonishing the doctor, Chang Sheng, but it was disrespectful."
This surprised Du Yan, Li Duanyi and others. They did not know when Du Yan became the doctor of Youjianyi. Du Yan was surprised that Ye An could accurately tell the news he only knew yesterday.
Seeing Du Yan's expression, Ye An smiled and said, "I only found out about this after hearing the conversation between officials from the Ministry of Personnel in Xinlingfang yesterday."
So that was the case. The noble man next to him smiled and said, "Yehou's Xinlingfang is a well-informed place!"
Chashou smiled and said, "It's just taking advantage of the location."
Du Yan had heard a lot about Ye An's business and Xinlingfang's affairs, but he didn't say anything, but frowned slightly and said: "Yehou is acting as the land order for Sinong Temple today, have you prepared the order?"
Ye An and Li Duanyi were stunned at the same time and looked at each other. Li Duanyi even exclaimed: "Have you never heard of this?!"
Seeing Ye Anzhen's confused look, Du Yan was also slightly startled, and then said in shock: "This is a big matter and cannot be delayed! Regardless of how the palace delayed this matter, let's put it aside for the time being. It will take some time for this big thing to happen.
, quickly go to find officials from the Ministry of Rites, or ask a Hanlin bachelor to be your ghostwriter for the time being!"
Following Du Yan's words, Ye An's expression became more and more serious. This matter was not trivial. It was even related to his future career. Although he didn't know what went wrong, Du Yan was right. Now is not the time to think about this. First,
The only thing is to get through the difficulties at hand.
……………………
The greater the pressure, the clearer his mind becomes. At this time, he is recalling all the details about his own farming in his mind, as well as historical records, and of course, he is also recalling the abnormality of the whole thing.
From the time when the censor in the palace arranged a position for him, it showed that even he did not know that he was going to serve as the Ling of Yutian. As for now, officials from the Ministry of Rites have not even come to look for him, which shows that the Ministry of Rites does not know either.
Why did Du Yan know? It was probably that an official in the Ministry of Punishment mentioned the news about him before and he heard it, so after he learned his identity, he turned around frequently and hesitated to speak.
